Chapter 85: Killing the Star Pirates: Three gunshots followed like shadows, barely distinguishable...
The three cannonballs followed closely, and it was almost impossible to tell which came first and which came later. The light was blinding and formed a triangle shape, and there was no way to avoid it.
Since there is no way to avoid it, we can only face it head-on.
The pirates wanted to grind him to dust, but Muas didn't agree.
Three beams of artillery fire also rushed out. These were the most powerful shells on the Muas mecha. They had not been used once in three months, so this time they were used to deal with the pirates.
Perhaps because it was a fatal move, there were always overlapping parts. Three artillery shells fired back, two of which were stopped in mid-air and collided with the shells fired by the opponent, destroying both.
In Muas's eyes, firing another shell was as easy as taking something out of a bag. He ducked down and braked, and the shell exploded not far ahead. The stirred-up sand and gravel hit the mecha, but did not leave a trace on it.
And one of the shells fired back by Muyas survived and headed straight for Dono.
Dono didn't expect the little mouse to have the ability to fight back, and he was careless for a moment. Although he subconsciously avoided it based on his experience, there were still scorch marks on the side of the mecha from the artillery fire.
In this situation, it was almost certain that the little mouse would die in the fireworks, but due to negligence, it was bitten by its prey.
If it were any other insect, it would have been extremely furious and would have wanted to cut the little mouse into pieces, but Dono was not an ordinary insect. He was a madman, a pervert, and he liked changes.
The same old results are really boring. He doesn't like them. He likes interesting ones.
The life of an insect that can be seen through at a glance is also boring, so he became a space pirate.
Not knowing what the future holds, not knowing when you will die, living in uncertainty at any moment, how interesting!
He likes interesting things.
Dono linked to Muas's mecha signal and sent a message of surrender to the other party: I am very interested in you. As long as you surrender and join the Red Bird Pirates, I will release your companions.
This is the threat of space pirates.
However, facing powerful opponents, the pirates' artillery fire can easily penetrate their mechas and kill the bugs in the operating room, while their artillery shells can hardly break through the pirates' mecha shells.
This is a confrontation of unequal power, and the winner is clear at a glance.
But Dono is now interested in a certain bug, and as long as they compromise, they can get a chance to survive.
For the youngsters who haven't left the military academy yet, their thoughts are too easy to guess. They are just like clams in the river. When you pry open the shell, the tender soft flesh inside is exposed, and their weaknesses are exposed without any concealment.
Lin Xi was very sensitive to emotions, and Dono only saw them as interesting toys, without any sincerity: "He's cheating!"
Muas nodded: "I know."
He knew it was a trick of the other party, but his mind was working at high speed, thinking about how to escape from the pirates.
But just like the cruel reality, it is all in sight here, there is nothing to hide, and they have nowhere to escape.
Since there is no way to escape, the only option is to fight back.
Muas said, "For the sake of my companions, I agree."
Lin Xi paused for a moment. Muas knew the truth, but still chose to compromise.
At this moment, his thoughts were the same as Muas's: to take advantage of the situation.
The space pirate is an expert at manipulating the hearts of insects, but the more expert he is, the more conceited he is. He believes in his own judgment, and even if he thinks his prey has some ability, he will not believe that the other party has the possibility of devouring his master.
Proud, complacent, and arrogant.
In military strategy, the most taboo is complacency, nothing is absolute.
Muas's mecha walked towards Dono step by step.
Watching this rather interesting mouse walking towards him tactfully, Dono suddenly felt that interesting mice were nothing special, and not as interesting as he had imagined.
But when he thought about killing his companion, and seeing him crying bitterly and full of resentment, and then killing him with a single shot, Dono thought, that expression must be very beautiful!
No, you don't have to kill him. His expression of suppressed resentment is also very interesting. Dono feels happy just thinking about keeping a rat that is ready to bite its master at any time by his side, and its helpless and furious look that wants to bite its master but can never succeed.
Those forward steps seemed to step into Dono's heart. The curve of his mouth grew wider and wider. A little closer, a little closer. If I could cripple this bug, the other little mice would be easy prey...
But in a place that Dono didn't notice, wisps of transparent mental power seeped out from the mecha and moved quietly, earlier than Muas's actions, and only he could sense it.
The male insect's mental power is so cute and gentle, completely different from the female insect's mental power which has a strong presence.
The female insect is a powerful weapon for killing enemies in battle, and will be discovered by the enemy insects as soon as it is released.
But how could such a soft and harmless little cutie attract the attention of a vicious poisonous snake if it got close to it?
Male insects are delicate, sweet, noble, and are treasures that are cherished in the palm of your hand. Naturally, they cannot have the ability to kill insects. Even if you whip them, it will only tickle the insects.
But male insects are not born useless, they are just raised useless.
The spiritual tentacles, as thick as thighs, are enough to break any insect's neck by more than ten sections when they are wrapped around the neck.
Mental power is like nothing. They can penetrate anywhere they want to penetrate, and there are few things that can stop them.
"Well……"
Dono was so focused that his brain suffered from oxygen deprivation before any instructions were issued.
Dono's face turned red and he pulled at his neck with both hands, but was blocked by a transparent object. It seemed as if his neck was strangled by something and he couldn't move.
Dono understood that this was mental power, but when?
Why didn't he notice?
Dono thrust his mental strength fiercely at this force. Even if he died, he would not let the other party off easily!
However, the invincible spiritual power suddenly lost its effect after it came into contact with this inexplicable spiritual power. It was like a sharp venomous snake that had lost its fangs. It slid away and slashed away, completely out of control. It even wanted to get closer and rub against it, craving more...
This stupid mental power, your main insect is going to be strangled to death!
At the moment before his death, a thought suddenly flashed through Dono's mind, an absolutely impossible guess, but the more impossible it was, the more realistic it was.
His neck was suddenly broken, his trachea ruptured, and blood gushed out of his nasal cavity. He was dead beyond dead.
Dono's eyes were wide open, frozen in the expression of having discovered a shocking secret but unable to speak it out, forever buried in that moment.
But he was still smiling, with his lips curled up, as if he had discovered something more interesting, but what was it?
No bug would guess it.
Muas fired a shot at the control room, and the mecha fell to the ground and did not move again.
"Is this...dead?" The mecha didn't move for a long time, so Parker asked tentatively.
Muas stepped forward to pry open the operating room, and a bug fell out from inside. Its death was not miserable, but it was laughing like that before dying. It must be a pervert.
"Why did he die suddenly?" Parker asked.
When Wylie went forward to examine the body, he discovered that the man had been strangled to death. There were still marks of strangulation on the neck, but there was no rope or anything like that.
"It's mental power." Wei Li judged.
There is still a faint spiritual power remaining in the wound, but as time passes, it will disappear without a trace in a while.
Upon hearing this, Parker guessed that Muas's agreement was just a delaying tactic, and he was actually secretly planning a sneak attack. He didn't expect that the pirate was so unvigilant and died in an instant.
Sander asked, "What should we do next?"
Several bugs subconsciously looked at the mecha that was so frightened that it collapsed on the spot and has not recovered yet.
Parker went forward and knocked on the door of the operating room: "Hey, do you have any living companions?"
"Don't kill me... I don't have any star coins..."
"I'm just an ordinary student..."
Parker sighed, turned around and told his companion, "I was so scared that I couldn't ask anything."
Lin Xi was speechless. After all, he was a student at a military academy and had been trained to withstand stress. He didn't expect that his mental quality was so poor.
Unable to get what he wanted from the students, Lin Xi released a trace of mental power and probed into the pirates' operation room to see if there was any monitoring and communication equipment that could be used to find the base camp.
Just as his mental power passed over the pirate's body, a faint voice sounded from his chest.
"save……"
This voice suddenly sounded, startling the mental tentacles that were reaching out, and the little tips were bent and curled up.
Jianjian poked the chest tentatively and found no heartbeat. The pirate was already dead.
But my chest felt hard, as if there was something inside. Could it be a communication device?
The tentacles reached into the chest pocket and rummaged around, only to find a chain-like object. He hooked it out and took a look, only to discover that it was a jewel necklace that looked extremely luxurious.
"Help……"
"Fear……"
The sound rang out again, and Tentacle suddenly dropped the necklace, and the sound disappeared again.
Realizing that it was the necklace speaking, the tentacles grasped the necklace again and the voice rang out again.
"I'm so scared..."
"Someone come and save me..."
"Nathani... Virgil..."
Lin Xi murmured: "Nathani, Virgil..."
Muas was close enough to catch two words that sounded familiar: "What's wrong?"
Lin Xi looked at Muyas: "I seem to sense a bug calling for help. There are two bugs. There is a residual spiritual power on the necklace."
This spiritual quality...
Muas subconsciously said, "It's a male insect!"
The male insect's mental power can be used to attach emotions. The remaining pheromones and male insect mental power on the star pirate's body were completely cleared, but the attachment could not be removed. It would only disappear with the passage of time.
Lin Xi nodded: "One is called Nathani and the other is called Virgil. Do you know them?"
Muas immediately searched his mind for the insect name and quickly opened his eyes and said, "It's the Eddy family and the Cohen family."
"Their two families are related by marriage and visit each other frequently. The male insects are also very close. I heard that these two went on a travel planet some time ago."
Lin Xi frowned slightly. "So they were traveling together, and they accidentally encountered space pirates and got captured?"
Muas nodded slightly: "That should be the case."
